Course Information

Gain the advantage with Te Reo Māori as the central platform for your career and personal development.

This degree has been designed to enable modern speakers of Te Reo Māori to realise their full personal and professional potential. Not only will you learn about the Māori language and culture, you'll also live it. Our aim is to provide you with a strong sense of self, advanced skills in written and spoken Te Reo Māori and an understanding of how you can make Te Reo Māori an important part of your future career, as well as how you can personally contribute to the advancement of our language.

While you continue your strong focus on Te Reo Māori, you'll also explore how to apply your knowledge and skills in areas of growth such as marketing, business management, health and sustainability. These pathways will culminate in a community and career-focused capstone research project at the end of your third year.
